According to the Verdal out-migration register, he left Verdal on 2 May 1881 as Elling Eliasen Baglovald. He departed Trondheim on 5 May 1881 aboard the feeder ship Tasso. His name was Elling E. Baglo, a 32 year-old laborer, with destination Fergus Falls, Minnesota. He arrived in New York on May 28, 1881, aboard the S.S. Samana as Elling E. Baglo. Took the name of Bye in America. His family had to wait five years before they joined him in Fergus Falls. He was living with his brother Martin Bye and family in Fergus Falls in the 1885 Minnesota state census. In the 1895 Minnesota state census, Elling and his family live in Fergus Falls where he is a miller. He is 46, his wife Martha is 50, and his three sons still living at home are Peder E, 18, Andrew, 17, and Julius, 7. “... died in this city [Fergus Falls] many years ago...” said Martin Bye’s obituary. Dee Austring calls him Elling Eliassen, born 1848 in Storøren gård #265, Verdal, Nord-Trøndelag, Norway. Her research identifies Elling as “18yo Tjenestekarl” in the 1865 Norwegian census, living at Rosvold søndre farm, Verdal, Nord-Trøndelag, Norway. His marriage entry in the Verdal church book identifies him as Elling Eliassen Leirfaldvald, born in 1848 in Baglovald. Her research identifies Elling as “Husmand med Jord og Telgrafarbeider” in the 1875 Norwegian census, living at Baglovald farm, Verdal, Nord-Trøndelag, Norway. Perhaps his naturalization record: E.
